I can even call back on you and tell that why don't you then report to bugs that it's better to use: PHP Code: new ADMIN_ALL        0    /* everyone */ new ADMIN_IMMUNITY        (1<<0)    /* flag "a" */ new ADMIN_RESERVATION    (1<<1)    /* flag "b" */ new ADMIN_KICK        (1<<2)    /* flag "c" */ new ADMIN_BAN        (1<<3)    /* flag "d" */ new ADMIN_SLAY        (1<<4)    /* flag "e" */ new ADMIN_MAP        (1<<5)    /* flag "f" */ new ADMIN_CVAR        (1<<6)    /* flag "g" */ new ADMIN_CFG        (1<<7)    /* flag "h" */ new ADMIN_CHAT        (1<<8)    /* flag "i" */ new ADMIN_VOTE        (1<<9)    /* flag "j" */ new ADMIN_PASSWORD        (1<<10)    /* flag "k" */ new ADMIN_RCON        (1<<11)    /* flag "l" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_A        (1<<12)    /* flag "m" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_B        (1<<13)    /* flag "n" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_C        (1<<14)    /* flag "o" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_D        (1<<15)    /* flag "p" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_E        (1<<16)    /* flag "q" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_F        (1<<17)    /* flag "r" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_G        (1<<18)    /* flag "s" */ new ADMIN_LEVEL_H        (1<<19)    /* flag "t" */ new ADMIN_MENU        (1<<20)    /* flag "u" */ new ADMIN_ADMIN        (1<<24)    /* flag "y" */ new ADMIN_USER        (1<<25)    /* flag "z" */  instead of original onces, cause much of custom plugins can/do use one FLAG more than once during mapchange time? --- And about "Don't check if task exists if you only need to remove it." Just I had a need to look at any one of you'r plugins just to abuse you in some thing what you would do your way and cause of that there will be problems with plugin stability. And guess what - I found one. There is an approved plugin by you what doesn't even work! Now the question is should I tell you, hopping you will learn something from it, or should I let you find it yourself guaranteeing that you will learn from your mistakes. I more prefer way #2, but tell me when you'll get tired.

Last time I checked, all my approved plugins worked. It's been a while since I updated any of them, though. Does the one you have in mind not work because of AMXX 1.8.x?

Sorry if you got offended for some reason. I still don't see myself as being wrong about anything, though.

Ok, will make that plugin. But overlooking possibilities, I will not add where enemies are - only where teammates died and c4 is dropped if visible (to avoid confusion of what red dot stands for what). For terrorists I can add only read dot, as for CT I can add blue, red, and mix between (blue,red,pink). So I'll use only teammate death and c4 location.

And to hleV, I am not offended. But I will not change "#define" to "new const". And the plugin of yours what isn't working is this one. Inlcude "is_user_connected(Client)" check in it, cause between client_connect() and client_putinserver() player is spawned also. Or instead of client_connect() use client_putinserver(). I would suggest second way. But choose what fits you more.

// EDIT:

Updated to 1.5
Added: Cvar to disable plugins_by_numb feature (set "pbn_simple" to "1").

Downloads retested: 121, 38, 43, 36 = ( 238 )

Plugin works fine, as there's is_user_alive() check when player spawns.

"is_user_alive()" always returns true if players team is UNSIGNED.

Doesn't sound like true for me.. Why is_user_alive returns 0 in Ham_Spawn when player joins server? (the first call when player gets the camera)

PHP Code:

    return ((pPlayer->ingame && pPlayer->IsAlive()) ? 1 : 0);

// --

    inline bool IsAlive(){
        return ((pEdict->v.deadflag==DEAD_NO)&&(pEdict->v.health>0));
    }

Ok, since when it got fixed? Maybe they did finally fixed the get_players() glitch of also getting the connecting ones?

Don't look at me

It's like that since the start, MPNumB.

What about make a .ini file instead of attaching 4 .sma file with only 'commented or not' defines ?

I don't like file reading and bla-bla-bla. Plus defines take less CPU. And when functions such as AddToFullPack are in place it's much better to use define instead of checking an extra if.
